Hi Sebastian,

I'm really enjoying getting to know Slim Control. I really like the
keyboard filter - it provides lots of flexibility. A couple of minor
usability issues I've noticed:

1. The scrolling artist + track title under the cover on the main
display truncates some of my longer track titles. It would be great if
this could accept any length title. Alternatively increasing the field
size (doubling it?) would be OK. Some classical track titles are very
long. (e.g. Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 2 in B flat "Lobgesang" - 2.1 All
men, all things, all that have life and breath)

2. If I use the keyboard to filter a list of artists, select an artist
to review their albums, then return to the artists list the filter has
been cleared. It would be more useful to me if the filter stayed set
when I return to the artists list. That way I can check the albums for
all the artists the filter has selected.

3. In the playlist screen, track names are truncated if they are too
long for the line length. Many classical tracks then appear identical
(see above example under 1). In other displays you handle this elegantly
by providing a scrolling version of the selected item at the top of the
display. Here you show a scrolling version of the currently playing
track name, which is great, but doesn't help when I want to select
another track. Could you word wrap the track title (and artists too, I
guess)and let the selection box expand to suit? Alternatively, a
scrolling version of the selected track would allow confirmation that
the selected track is correct before moving to it.

Just some thoughts for your consideration.

Cheers,
Rob
